Deadly Gun Attack On Nigeria
Wedding Convoy.
Report has just reached us that Gunmen
suspected to be members of Boko Haram have attacked a wedding convoy in northern
Nigeria, killing more than 30 people including the groom.
This Islamic militants were
blamed for the ambush on the notorious Bama-Banki road in state of Borno this weekend.
The road runs alongside forests which are a known hideout for Boko Haram
fighters.
Witnesses said the wedding party
was returning to the state capital Maiduguri after a ceremony in Michika in
nearby Adamawa state when the gunmen struck. It is not known whether the bride
or her family were caught up in the attack. One driver, who did not wish to be
named, said he saw dead bodies lying on the road.
The scene was gruesome with dead bodies
on the road; all the victims were brutally murdered by these attackers."
